Campaign Shields

Recommended Posts

Here is a grouping of the best of my campaign shields, I have about 16 in total but here are the best :-

A Krim Heer shield

A Demyansk Heer zinc shield

A Cholm panzer shield

A Kuban Heer shield

A Narvik KM shield

A Lappland shield (complete with all the other citations from the family)

A Lorient shield with field citation and provenance.

It’s taken a long time to get all of those with the correct background and authenticity 😞

People say the Cholm is hard to get that’s real but the last two are even harder to get with the appropriate background!!!!!

Very impressive collection of shields Eddie, you need to keep an eye out for the Dunkirk shield. I've never even seen one, but apparently about 50 were awarded to Luftwaffe ground troops, it was more of a tradition badge than an arm shield, must be one of the rarest items out there if you can even find one.

I would suspect they are particularly pricey ! - especially if it’s got a history Kenny. E
